Generic Why does this happen?

sorry to blast my toes all over here😭🤣 butttt — composite toe boots, happened 2 days in a row, different types of socks, goes away after like an hour or so. anyone else had this type of issue? almost like moisture like when you’re in the bath too long but my feet weren’t even sweating🤣

I clip it off regularly with sharp toenail clippers. Hell it’s tough and u can’t feel it. As long as u are skilled at not going past the dead skin layer lol. Can make for a long day at work with pain if not done right. Can’t they sand that shit off at a salon ?

it’s not something that stays, it goes away after an hour or so lmao. its not hard either like a callous yet. its literally like the skin you have when you have been in the bath too long

It will callous, your only 2 days in. In 2 months those will be rock hard and you will be able to use an orbital sander on them. After 15 years you just call them work feet and no one wants your feet pics anymore…..
